Thinking of using this to drive a pair of monitor speakers only. Good idea?

I am currently using with two tower 15" subs and it works great. Should handle your monitors just fine.

Why not! Sounds like a perfect application. Like any other application, I would not plan to run this unit flat-out for long periods as you will likely run into reliability issues. This is not a high-end unit. I'm a gigging bass player and I've been using this with volumes set to about 8/10 for a couple of years now with no probs.

users guide says 100W x4 max at 14.4VDC and 1kHz, you'll have to decide if that'll work for your speakers and what you're trying to do with them. My uneducated guess is that this thing will get stressed if pushed to the limits. I'm using it well below max and I'm very happy with it driving 4 computer speakers.

I think it would be fine in this application as long as you aren't expecting the speakers to play at loud volumes.

the output is that of a tuner so if your speakers have a built in amp you should be ok, if not your out of luck or you will have to have a seperate amp

I wouldn't recommend it, they are excellent computer speakers and you'd probably blow them up. You could get a headphone jack converter and run them out of there.

Yes. I use two of these to power my home music studio. Along with two 8 in Mackie studio monitors, I also have a KRK subwoofer plus two LCD display monitors (HDMI & DVI). This type of connection is more than enough to generate interference but the ISOBAR eliminates this with no issues.

Yes, it is, the only thing is that they would have unbalanced outputs, but that is good. Also if you want them to have them balanced, you may buy a Mixer which main outputs are balanced with a pair of cables XLR so that you may use the balanced inputs on your monitors.

Seems like an expensive solution since you would need 2 units and 4 speakers and I wonder if the signal would be broadcast out from the head unit to drive both sets of speakers correctly.

It could be used, but you would need an amplifier and a 1/8" (computer) to RCA (amplifier) cable. Easier to buy a set of powered pc speakers

the amp can only drive 1 pair of bose 151/251/ etcc , splitting it out will decrease output to other speakers

There is a headphone jack and an AV output using 2 standard RCA plugs (red and white). The impedance is not given so I am not sure if there is enough output to drive speakers. It would work with a pair of amplified computer speakers or through a small amplifier of course.

Alex - You need to explain and understand your setup and budget. If you are using this for primary source of music and need to drive prof speakers or just casual listening with avg pair of speakers. Power amp cannot be used directly with PC; try M1Sdac or M1 Clic as pre amp and use that to drive the volume on M1Pwr - as the latter has fixed volume. Better solution would be to have powered speakers - Genelac or Krk would you be good bets presuming you have the $s.

This should work for that. I have mine set up to work with an old pair of B&O; speakers, and it sounds great! It's not a super powerful amp, so it won't get all that loud, but it puts out good sound. It has both USB and RCA inputs so you can hook it up to a computer AND another external input.

It's a 2 channel output rated at 12 watts per channel. It would work on 2 speakers, but nowhere near their potential. If you tried paralleling two speakers per channel you would get an impedance mismatch. If I were you, I would look for an amp with 4 channel out put and, maybe more power per channel. Don't exceed the power rating of your speakers though, or you could blow them out and damage your amplifier.

I wouldn't recommend it, it's made so that you can have stereo left and right amplified inputs from your stereo left and right outputand be able to share them with two sets of speakers. For instance if you had a set of speakers on your patio and a set of speakers in your dining room. This way you can shut the patio speakers off at night so the neighbors won't get mad at you. Al

I don't think so. You'd use the switch if you wanted to selectively drive 2 PAIRS of speakers from the 2nd zone. The switch would allow you to drive Pair A or Pair B or A+B.

This item is meant to provide a simple solution for computer monitors that lack internal speakers. My answer is yes, if you were just adding additional audio to supplement the sound of the TV, but you'd also need to purchase an inexpensive adapter (stereo to RCA) to be able to mate it up. This system though is ill equipped to handle surround audio if that is your intention. Hope this helps.
